| Darren:
I had considered making one of those tools, what are you cutting...alloy? How is it with steel? |
| DICKEYBIRD:
Yup, that was 2024 aluminum in the pic but it cuts steel & cast pretty well too. Just as in other cutting tools, you have to back down the speed & depth of cut appropriately. One of these days when I have my audience with the Wizard of Oz and get a brain, I'll actually learn how to compute SFM properly and know I have it right. :scratch: |
| NickG:
Looks fantastic that cutter. :bow: |
| Darren:
Good to know it works...... :dremel: Thanks for posting, gives me more reason to make one now... :thumbup: |
| DICKEYBIRD:
I finally remembered the website where the inspiration to build my dovetail cutter came from: http://www.gadgetbuilder.com/ToolHolders.html John Moran's a clever fellow and makes neat tools from whatever he's able to find lying around.
